    I bet many more people were led to Christ by his ministry than have been led to Christ by yours.

    And people wonder why the church in America is in rapid demise.

    All salvation requires a decision.

    Good for you for evangelizing. But just as nobody should be compelling you to give up your method:

    Who are you who judge the servant of another? To his own lord he stands or falls. Yes, he will be made to stand, for God has power to make him stand.

    We had the service at a Committal Shelter (a my mind a ramada on the cemetery gro (unds. Due to scheduling by SVNC, we only had 30 minutes. But, we got 'er done. No altar call, but a clear presentation of the Gospel was made by two of the speakers, my younger brother and my pastor (who was friends with Dad).

    I’m not judging anyone but when it was done to me I just looked it as cheap and manipulative. It pushed me farther away, because it wasn’t my time.... only the HS can name the time and place. Most up here in the NE reject what they perceive as manipulation. You then get labeled as a holy roller nut job. Any wonder why Southern Baptists are almost non existent here.

    Probably because we are Southern and y'all are Yankees. Until recently, the SBC didn't want you. Now we have that "big umbrella" thing going on.

    You should before you pass judgment on him. He has done profoundly more than you.

    Not really that much. He is doing the Work of The Lord. You seem to despise any successful ministry and minister. You seem to think anyone having success is doing it wrong.
